never heard of him

enlighten us

Very well. Aldar Beedo was a hitman and bounty hunter of the moon Ploo II. After assassinating local moon Ploo IV's Fluggrian crime lord Borzu Nale, Beedo was tracked to Tatooine by Nale's son, Kam Nale, who took the alias Elan Mak (Kam Nale, spelled backwards) as he plotted to kill the Glymphid. Beedo was on Tatooine on a mission to wipe out Sebulba, having been hired to do so by Wan Sandage, a podracer pilot whose path to fame was marred only by the racing prowess of Sebulba. Little did Beedo know that while he hunted Sebulba, Kam Nale was hunting him. Beedo and Nale alike entered in the Boonta Eve Classic podrace. Though Beedo ultimately failed to assassinate the Dug, he did manage to place third in the Boonta Eve Classic, as well as escape Nale. After the death of Wan Sandage, Beedo replaced Dud Bolt as Sebulba's bodyguard, after leaving Sandage to die. Beedo was later apprehended by a bounty hunter on Baroonda, after which his fate is unknown. Aldar Beedo is also notable for being the only Glymphid - named or unnamed - referenced in the Star Wars galaxy.

I think he's cool, but not anyone I would really get into.

Yeah, I know. Personally, I think he looks cool, and he has an interesting backstory which apparently occured during the time period of The Phantom Menace. I would love to see more of him and/or his species in future books, shows, games, etc.
